Text — Psalm 127:1-5

Message

Benny’s dad is a captain in the army. Although he loves his family but his job makes it difficult for him to be home most of the time. Benny was always in the company of his mom and younger sister. As he grew older, there were questions bothering him which he could have loved to discuss with his dad, but because he was not always available, he chose to ask some of his friends in school. Before long, he began to exhibit unpleasant behaviour.

Today, please pray fervently for children whose parents are in one military service or another. Quite a number of the security personnel are working for the government to ensure security, protection and maintenance of law and order in the society. Some of them are not always with their families due to transfer from one region to another. This is why you should spend time to pray for them and their children.

Pray that:
(i) God will keep the parents safe in their line of duty.
(ii) The Lord will protect and them from all evils and show them mercy.
(iii) God will help each of them understand how much God loves and cares for them.
(iv) God will help the children of security personnel to enjoy His comfort and encouragement.
(v) The Lord will keep their families safe. (vi) The children will not go astray no matter the pressure.
